Fell In Love In June 03:12
lyrics

Fireflies illuminate the skies The sweet light in your eyes Draped in blue right on cue As I dance alone with you I just want to be here With my arms around you Feel the light of the moon We fell in love in June Always seems to rain You said you felt the same But the clouds passed when you said my name Someone else kissing you would tear me in two I hope you feel the way I do I just want to be here With my arms around you Feel the light of the moon We fell in love in June Leave me still with only time to kill Lay by you on this foothill I just want to be here With my arms around you Feel the light of the moon We fell in love in June Feel the light of the moon We fell in love in June

Shake Shake Bridge 03:35
lyrics

I gotta stop the way I’m spinning around From the way you draw me in and kick me out Like a dog I come running when you say my name I’m embarrassed to admit I like the pain It’s just the way you talk It’s kind of messed up how this works at all Your moves, your curves, your edges Even though this bridge shakes I want to go over it Cuz I am every bit as broken as you Blaming everyone for what I couldn’t do I know love sometimes hurts I know it’s hard to find the right words It’s just the way you talk It’s kind of messed up how this works at all Your moves, your curves, your edges Even though this bridge shakes I want to go over it It’s just the way you talk (It’s just the way you talk) It’s kind of messed up how this works at all Your moves, your curves, your edges Even though this bridge shakes I want to go over it Even though this bridge shakes Even though this bridge shakes Even though this bridge shakes I want to go over it

Emotional Flyer 04:04
lyrics

Your shadow on my wall Desolate like an empty chair These old pictures hanging in the hall I try to move on but instead I stare Habits I fed, the habits I named Repeated like boards on a fence Exit ramps all look the same I hide my discomfort in a filtered lens So jump off the wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it out Glad you made it out Like a bird on a wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it out Glad you made it out I couldn’t admit I was looking for you Told myself I couldn’t have lied The sky is grey, well, it used to be blue I felt so alone I could have cried Jump off the wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it out Glad you made it out Like a bird on a wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it out Glad you made it out Jump off the wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it out Glad you made it out Shake off what came before The feathers and bones of old Be glad you made it Glad you made it out Like a bird on a wire, emotional flyer Be glad you made it Glad you made it out So jump off the wire, emotional flyer Glad you made it out Glad you made it out

Her hair blows in a breeze like an evergreen Her smile lights up the day ain’t she sweet Come down love Get lost in the clouds Birds will sing Mazzy touch the stars Her voice carries a past over Tennessee Her castles of pink and gold beauty queen Come down love Get lost in the clouds Birds will sing Mazzy touch the stars Come down love Get lost in the clouds Birds will sing Mazzy touch the stars

Dance With A Little Darkness 03:02
lyrics
buy track
I’ve been sleeping all day Since my love went away Front row tickets came To a cancelled game Dreams are strange Especially when they come true Dance with a little darkness in our eyes Get the feeling Everything we touch will go We dance with a little darkness in our eyes Rainbows over graveyards With widows of soldiers not coming home Dead leaves looking for the roots The walls that keep hope from getting through Dreams are strange Especially when they come true We dance with a little darkness in our eyes Get the feeling Everything we touch will go We dance with a little darkness in our eyes Hills are burning by the fire With the dreams of another young writer Kids are playing at the public school While the money gets moved to another interest group Dreams are strange Especially when they come true We dance with a little darkness in our eyes Get the feeling Everything we touch will go We dance with a little darkness in our eyes Dance with a little darkness in our eyes We dance with a little darkness in our eyes

This Land 02:54
lyrics
buy track
The fields are dry And we’re not getting by In my mind I’m crossing lines for a better life My brother’s in Tennessee Said there’s work there for me He’s sending cash, enough for us to leave La familia mi amor It’s time to close the door Of this little hacienda by the bay Put my hands in the dirt I’m happy for the work There’s no job above or below me When they look at me they see The bracelet by my feet Like the cattle tagged on a prairie running free I love to watch you play With your friends in a pickup game Reminds me of our hacienda by the bay A letter was received That said we had to leave This land wasn’t meant for you and me Poppy, please say no Cuz I don’t wanna go I’ll miss playing with my friends in the snow We’re off to where we’re from South of the setting sun No more hacienda by the bay We’re off to where we’re from South of the setting sun No more hacienda by the bay

Another Bird Leaves 03:34
lyrics

Tried calling home You didn’t answer the phone My mind starts to race To the darkest place, the darkest place Falling stars in the night Fall like tears in your eyes Feel my soul turn to steel I got scars that won’t heal Another bird leaves against my will Crazy things we say Pretend it’s OK We’re too proud to change Ignore the pain, ignore the pain Falling stars in the night Fall like tears in your eyes Feel my soul turn to steel I got scars that won’t heal Another bird leaves against my will Falling stars in the night Fall like tears in your eyes Feel my soul turn to steel I got scars that won’t heal I got scars that won’t heal We all got scars that won’t heal Another bird leaves Another bird leaves Another bird leaves against my will

Could Have Been A Ghost 02:52
lyrics
buy track
Every age takes a turn Every sailor has to learn When the past rolls away Like a wave You see the sky through the fog A thousand waves Every age takes a turn Every sailor has to learn Every tree begins with a seed There’s a long way to peace Realize, you could have been a ghost Do you realize? Every age takes a turn Every sailor has to learn Every tree begins with a seed There’s a long way to peace Every age takes a turn Every sailor has to learn Every tree begins with a seed There’s a long way to peace Every age takes a turn Every sailor has to learn Every tree begins with a seed There’s a long way to peace
